| Title |
Early Post medieval: Incomplete dagger |
||
| Description |
English: An incomplete forged iron dagger, of probable Early Post Medieval dating (15th to 16th Centuries AD).
Around 50% of the dagger is present, consisting of most of the blade, the quillon and part of the tang. The rest of the tang and the tip of the blade are missing, presumed lost in antiquity. The tang is rectangular in cross section. The blade is lozenge shaped in cross section. The blade gradually tapers downwards the tip. The quillon (guard) consists of a sub oval base, with two downward curving arms, one to either side. The arms terminate in an onion shaped rounded knop. It measures 169.0 mm in length, 78.3 mm wide and 20.3 mm thick. The tang is 15.6 mm wide and 3.9 mm thick. The blade has a max width of 35.4 mm and a min width of 20.9 mm (where the tip has broken off). The blade varies in thickness from 10.0 mm near the top to 7.1 mm at the break. The quillon measures 42.2 mm in length, 78.3 mm wide and 20.6 mm thick. It weighs 180.3 g. The dagger is a mid brown colour. The surface of the dagger is covered with a layer of stable iron corrosion (rust). A quillon with similar terminals has been recorded on the PAS database as NMS-37B248 and has been dated to the 16th Century. |
